Re: AW: [Doepfer_a100] Whats the smallest keyboard with CV Gate Outputs?

2008-06-20 by James Husted

I had imagined that it would cost a bunch. I have a couple of Anvil  
Case briefcases laying around (they used to sell them as promo items)  
and I could try to build a keyboard into one of them. I used to go to  
pawn shops and look for old instrument cases and build electronics  
into them. Sometimes you can find a old wooden instrument case that  
is just the right dimensions to do the job. I had good success with  
old clarinet and tenor saxophone cases - just the right size for  
small projects after you ripped out the insides.
